JR to Ginza Line at Shibuya Station
How to change from JR lines to the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line at Shibuya Station. Since 2020 the Ginza Line has been on the 3rd floor on the east side, above Meiji-dori. Allow about 5 minutes.
The Ginza Line station moved in January 2020. It is now on the 3rd floor on the east side of Shibuya, above Meiji-dori, near Shibuya Scramble Square and Shibuya Hikarie.
Leave JR through a gate on the east side and follow the orange Ginza Line signs to the Tokyo Metro gates. Allow about 5 minutes.
- Shibuya is the end of the Ginza Line, so every train goes the same way: towards Omotesando, Ginza and Asakusa.
- Older guides describe the Ginza Line on the west side, inside the Tokyu building. That station has closed.
